Induction of Apoptosis in the U937 Cell Line Co-cultured with Adipose-derived Stem Cells Secreting Bone Morphogenetic Protein-4.
Article in International journal of molecular and cellular medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) plays a significant role in tumorigenesis. MiR-181b is a multifunctional miRNA involved in numerous cellular processes, such as cell fate and cell invasion. This study aimed to examine whether the co-culture of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs), highly expressing bone morphogenetic protein-4, with the U937 cell line, which is a human myeloid leukemia cell line, is able to induce cell death in this cancer cell line, considering the potential ability of ADSCs to migrate from tumor sites. Cell surface markers, namely CD73 and CD105, were analyzed to verify the identity of mesenchymal stem cells isolated from adipose tissue. Besides, the osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation potentials of ADSCs were evaluated. The induction of cell death and apoptosis in the U937 cell line was assessed using MTT and annexin V/ PI assays, respectively. The expression levels of miR-181 and
